Yes. And that has been a long time coming.

Lets hope that in November it is the death knell for the Communist/Democrat Party.

If it does, it does.

With the dems prohibiting LE from doing their job, I am losing any concern I have for cries of *vigilante justice* from the MSM or the left.

People have the right to defend themselves and when the authorities refuse to protect us, people will take matters into their own hands.

In the same location all night?

I thought I read that they would get out of the cars, loot, and then take off.

That sounds like random fast strikes, even if it happens over several hours.

They did not fear the police, because the Mayor wanted the riots. They practiced catch and release, except those who were charged with Federal crimes. THEN they got a little sober when they realized they might do some serious prison time. Soros money is bad bargain if that is the penalty.

"The Rule of Law" is what defines civilization.
When there is no Rule of Law, mankind responds with whatever it takes to protect themselves.
When the enemy is within the gates, you judge by behavior, not what they say.
When faced with barbarians and barbarism, you respond in kind, even if it includes 'vigilanteeism' .

CORRECTION
" People have the (added- God given) right to defend themselves..
This is the basis of the "Castle Doctrine" employed in many States...
